Is it because we don't feed her that such a young child runs out to find food?
"Thank you, but I don't need it."
This was the first time Gu Tingxiao had been fed by such a young child, and he really didn't know what to do.
"You came here alone?"
It's quite a distance from the persimmon tree to here. He's an adult, so walking here doesn't seem like much to him. But how did this tiny-looking child manage to walk so far?
An Man didn't speak, her little mouth slightly pursed, stubbornly offering the green fruit in her hand to Gu Tingxiao's arms.

Suddenly, her gaze rose higher. An Man, held in Gu Tingxiao's arms, nestled in his broad embrace, experiencing for the first time the view from a height of 1.8 meters.
After the two figures, one large and one small, had gone far away, a small red snake with a triangular head, which had been cowering in the grass, finally dared to move its body and swam into the depths of the mountains like lightning.
If it weren't for that little kid of unknown origin, Gu Tingxiao would have been its prey long ago.
